London Population Falls From 7.9 Million in 1961 to 5.5–6.1 Million by 1991
The Greater London Council projects a decline in London’s population from 7.9 million in 1961 to between 5.5 and 6.1 million by 1991, driven by migration and a shrinking birth rate. Births have fallen from about 18 per 1000 a decade ago to an expected 11.4 per 1000. The over 75 group may grow while 5–16 year olds drop to 860,000, and children under 4 fall from 395,000 to about 250,000 by 1991, with 900,000 jobs lost in the last decade and unemployment around 4.3 percent.
